I have just started riding - my partner has been riding for many years so its good to have him around:)
I was doing the same thing - forgetting to turn off blinkers.
Now i have a certain checklists i have in my head when i do cetain things
Blinkers
When i turn them on
i do my turn
as soon as im straight
i turn off

I only had to think about it for a while until its natural.
I have a long way to go - but im enjoying myself

After riding dirt bikes without indicators for years before I hit the road, I know what you mean.
It may sound silly but I just remember.
Just say it in your head every corner until it becomes 2nd nature.
